LYSINE 500mg - 250 TABS

Lysine is an essential amino acid that must be obtained through the diet or through supplementation. Lysine is necessary for the production of all proteins in the body, and is required for the maintenance of the structural proteins collagen and elastin, which form all connective tissue such as skin, tendon, and bone.* Lysine is also a precursor to carnitine, which is needed for fat metabolism and energy production.* In addition, lysine may help to support a healthy immune system and proper cardiovascular function.*

Lysine has many important functions in the body and should therefore be included as part of a healthy diet. Let's take a closer look at some of the ways in which lysine can benefit our health.

As we age, our bodies produce less and less collagen. This can lead to wrinkles and sagging skin. Thankfully, lysine can help to prevent this by stimulating Collagen Synthesis*. In addition to keeping us looking young and fresh-faced on the outside, lysine also helps to keep us feeling young and energetic on the inside by playing a role in fat metabolism for energy production*.

Lysine is also important for cardiovascular health*. This amino acid helps to reduce LDL cholesterol levels while simultaneously increasing HDL cholesterol levels. By doing so, lysine can help to reduce the risk of heart disease.

When it comes to amino acids, lysine is one that we cannot afford to miss out on. This essential amino acid plays a role in protein production, collagen synthesis*, fat metabolism*, cardiovascular health*,and immunity*. Including lysine-rich foods in our diet or taking a lysine supplement can help us to maintain our health as we age.
